Though Slickdeals overflows with rebate offerings, they're always a mixed opportunity. Rebates are great if they're simple and reliable (and large!) but they're a major frustration if they involve complex instructions and delayed or denied payment.
As rebates became widely used, strong opinions have arisen. Some people seek them aggressively, jump through hoops, fill out paperwork for apparent bargains. Others mistrust and avoid them, just try to buy at best prices available, whether discount, sale, or list. And still other folks ignore them.
Theories circulate about why companies use rebates and how they can deceive and defraud consumers. While some consumers believe that rebates simply let companies gather personal information, others haven't seen their data abused. Nevertheless, when claiming rebates, it's safer specifying that you don't want to receive vendor news and special offers.
A more likely rebate justification is that some purchasers don't claim them and others botch paperwork, allowing companies to tout low prices without paying off. In fact, many companies outsource rebate handling to specialized processing services, which sometimes use flimsy excuses for denying payment. It's bad news for both consumers and businesses that skepticism and anger about rebates keep people out of some stores and away from some vendors.
But by planning purchases and watching for rebates on what you need, not falling for too-good-to-be-true offers, and (especially) following simple rules, you can avoid hazards and win the rebate game. Remember, though, it's hardly worth much effort plus a stamp to claim a tiny rebate.
When shopping — online, by phone, even in stores — always remember rebates, though information about them may not be prominent. So, especially for large purchases, search for secret or lesser-known rebates. Just enter the shopping site you're using with likely keywords such as "rebate", "refund", etc. And search Slickdeals as well.
Watch for rebates in store flyers and email newsletters. When new product versions are released, rebates often reduce prices dramatically, sometimes to zero.
A common and sometimes valuable category is companies rewarding upgrading software versions or replacing their competitor's products. I've acquired many generations of multiple Symantec products for free or at very low cost, by combining store and manufacturer deals. Either way, you must prove ownership of the product being upgraded or replaced, usually by sending in its installation CD or a page from its manual. Since some vendors allow rebates for owning *any* of their or a competitor's products, save product material, even if you're no longer using it, until you're sure that you won't need it someday for a rebate.
Similarly, keep anything that rebates may require, including purchase receipts and packaging (UPC codes, box tabs, coupons).
Some rebates require submitting original receipts, so if you buy multiple rebate-eligible products, get separate receipts. And if a product provides multiple rebates, request duplicate receipts to avoid needing to make copies.
File promptly, since rebates expire. A dead rebate is a sad rebate.
Write legibly. If a clerk can't read your information, you'll lose the rebate. Use preprinted name/address labels if you have them.
Copy what you send. You may need to resubmit a rebate request, need the receipt for other products bought at the same time, or need paperwork to receive warranty service. Save copies of paperwork until payment is received.
Enclose a prominent list of rebate requirements and check off each one, indicating you've satisfied them all. I've had good luck claiming rebates since I started doing this. It may not matter, but I do this to indicate that I'll complain if the rebate is denied.
If you're skeptical about a rebate's reliability, pay for post office proof-of-mailing, particularly for large rebates.
Record pending rebates and complain promptly/forcefully to store/vendor/both if they're not received when due or are unjustly denied. Some people use spreadsheets or specialized software but a simple file is adequate for me.
When possible, submit rebates online. Costco, among other stores and vendors, prints simple instructions for doing this on receipts. It works.
You can check some rebates' status online, which can either reassure you that payment is in process or alert you to a problem.
Finally, of course, always read the fine print. And don't let a brightly hyped rebate lure you into buying something you'll regret.

arizona.newszap.com (12.18.12)
Unlike most states that allow parents to opt out of vaccinations for medical or religious reasons, Arizona allows parents with children in schools, preschools, and childcare centers to opt out for personal or philosophical reasons as well. The state requires parents to sign a personal beliefs exemption form acknowledging that they understand the risks of not vaccinating and that unvaccinated children could be excluded from school if an outbreak occurs.
In 2011–2012 school years, 3.4 percent of kindergartners were not vaccinated for at least one vaccine due to personal belief exemptions. In 2000–2001, there was only 1.4 percent in that category. In certain counties the number is much higher. In Yavapai County, 9.2 percent of kindergartners, 9.4 percent of sixth graders, and 11.5 percent of 10th graders had personal beliefs exemptions for the 2011–2012 school year. In Coconino County, 6.2 percent of kindergartners, 11.6 percent of sixth graders, and 4.1 percent of 10th graders had personal belief exemptions. Karen Lewis, medical director for the Immunization Program Office at the Arizona Department of Health Services, stated that clusters of higher exemption rates and lower immunity levels that result put schools and communities at risk.
University of Arizona researchers, including Kacey Ernst, an assistant professor at the College of Public Health, recently released the first part of a study commissioned by the Arizona Department of Health Services on personal beliefs exemptions. They analyzed state data, surveyed parents and doctors, and held town halls. Results showed that schools with higher rates of exemptions tended to have higher presence of white students and lower rates of free and reduced lunch. Charter schools and schools in northern Arizona tended to have higher rates of exemptions. According to Ernst, this meant that the access to vaccines was not the problem, but that parents did not want vaccines for their children. Some parents were concerned about the side effects of vaccines, others worried that children were getting too many vaccines at one time, and some parents favored a natural lifestyle with natural exposure to disease for immunization. Also, many parents who opted out did not believe the risks of disease were severe.
The Arizona chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics plans to advocate during the 2013 legislative session for a law requiring parents seeking vaccination exemptions to be counseled by a health professional on the risks. Will Humble, director of the Arizona Department of Health Services, worries about the risk of a severe outbreak in areas with high percentages of parents who choose the personal beliefs exemption. He opted to evaluate the results of the university's study on exemptions before considering next steps, but he noted that the decision to vaccinate affects more than just the child. He is concerned that by not vaccinating, the parent is putting not just their kids at risk, but also the whole community.

http://www.gallaghersaz.com Sports bars are a dime a dozen in every city in the U.S., so it's hard for one to stand out from the pack. They all have sticky bars, ripped up barstools, cute-after-a-few-drinks bartenders, and TVs that are too often left on a channel no one wants to watch. If we ever had the opportunity to reinvent the wheel, the result would look a lot like Gallagher's Sports Grill. There's more for fans than a few tiny screens to stare at. Amenities include off-track betting windows, arcade games, trivia nights, karaoke, a posh outdoor patio complete with waterfall and breathtaking views, and 25 conveniently placed TVs broadcasting everything from the popular football and baseball games to sports with fewer fans, like bowling. The menu is on par too, including American standards like burgers, pizza, sandwiches, and grilled meats including baby back ribs and chicken fajitas. The best part? Gallagher's has six locations spread throughout the Valley in South Phoenix, North Phoenix, Central Phoenix, Carefree, Chandler, and Peoria. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.gallaghersaz.com/index.html Gallagher's Sports Grill has locations all over the Valley, and the 16th Street location is in keeping with the feel established by the company"s other locations. Nighttime activities include more than just the games on the TVs spread evenly throughout the bar and outside on the patio, offering karaoke and trivia during the week. The spacious seating ensures ease in grabbing a mug of domestic and import brews, and the kitchen's selection of wings and burgers make Gallagher's a dependable stop for a bite, a sip, and a place to root for the Cards.

https://www.facebook.com/gametimesportsgrillaz With 15 flat-screen televisions dominating the walls, and smaller flat-screens at each booth, you won't miss a minute of the fight at Gametime. Owners order all the UFC fights and most boxing matches, in addition to NFL Sunday Ticket, the NBA League Pass, and college football's Big Ten Package. This family-friendly restaurant by day starts hopping at night, when music pumps energy into the air and the drink specials come out to play. And you more than make up for the $5 cover on game nights (no drink minimums) with the bevy of specials, including all-day happy hour on Monday and 25-cent drinks on Thursday nights with the purchase of a $5 wristband.

http://www.publichousegarage.com/home.php Boasting sweet metalwork and an automotive-inspired decor, the Garage Public House knows how to complete a theme: as gas prices go up, the price of the first round of beers goes down. This Ahwatukee spot is clean and modern looking, with vintage photos lining the wall, gleaming garage style doors and chic lighting overlooking rows of plush leather booths and a massive, circular bar in the center. The setup alludes back to the "Garage Family's" history, when the family used secretly housed a moonshine operation under the guise of a simple filling station. The kitchen serves up New American style cuisine, and the bar is loaded with an extensive array of liquors and wines, making the Garage Public House worth fuel-stop for the evening.

Whenever the day-drinking mood strikes us, we typically head for Garnett's Rite Inn, because this rough-around-the-edges roadhouse located along Seventh Avenue offers the dive bar hat trick of cheap booze ($1.75 Bloody Mary's from 6 to 9 a.m.), saucy-yet-friendly bartenders, cheesy décor (check out all the mirrored beer signs), and a pretty kickass jukebox (stocked with Otis Redding, Reba McEntire, and Johnny Cash). Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.geishaagogo.com From capsule-like private karaoke rooms, to high-tech Toto toilets, to cartoonishly cute waitresses who look like they hang out in Harajuku, Geisha A Go Go brings trendy Japanese kitsch to Old Town. The menu runs the gamut from dumplings and hot rock dishes to seafood entrees, and while it won't satisfy your craving for traditional Japanese cuisine (this tavern is more about the scene than the cuisine), it will help you soak up a Hello Kitty cocktail or some fruit-infused shochu.

Although you might be intimidated by its Biltmore address, the prospect of sipping spirits inside the Art Deco opulence of chewing-gum magnate William Wrigley's 1930s-era mansion is too temping to resist. Wind your way up the spiral driveway and head inside this Spanish Colonial-style manor for a snifter or two at the tony lounge named for the late meatpacking heir Geordie Hormel (who purchased and restored the property with his wife Jamie in the early '90s). Drinks run the gamut from classic selections (vodka gimlets, Manhattans, and the Moscow Mule are a specialty) to handcrafted martinis, and cocktails. On any given weekend, you're bound to find a mix of curious tourists, swanky scenesters, and other members of a more well-heeled tax bracket, as well as anyone with an appreciation of vintage cocktails in an equally vintage setting. While a one-time $10 membership fee has more to do with sidestepping some zoning laws than actual exclusivity, the hallowed view of the Valley from Geordie's patio is well worth the price and makes you feel like the king of the hill.

http://www.georgeanddragonpub.net For a uniquely British drinking experience that will take you on a quick trip across The Pond, stop by George & Dragon English Restaurant and Pub. The interior is decked out with displays of UK pride, including Union Jacks, local flags, pub signs, and tabletops featuring London Tube stations. Not only does the bar stock the largest selection of imported draught beer and scotch in the Phoenix area, but the kitchen cranks out authentic dishes like shepherd's pie, bangers n' mash, and steak and kidney pie filled with Guinness-braised steak chunks and slightly musky lamb kidney bathed in gravy. The fish n' chips are always a safe bet, the golden brown cod dredged in just the right amount of batter, the chips crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. George & Dragon is also known for its regular poker games, held on Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.giliginsbar.com There's rarely a dull moment to be had at Giligin's, as this wacked-out island-themed watering hole specializes in serving up goofy good times, as well as gigantic 24-ounce beers, to its rowdy patrons. Be sure to check out the weekly goldfish races, karaoke four nights a week, or hang out with the always-hilarious Chuey the Rock 'n' Roll Midget, who works his own Lilliputian-sized bar in one corner. Plus, the kitchen stays open until 1:30 a.m., serving crab cakes, corn dogs, and other fried treats just in case you get the late-night munchies. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>

Several pool tables are also on the premises should you feel like proving your billiards superiority. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.goldbarespresso.org If you leave Gold Bar Espresso thirsty, then you've got some explaining to do. The family-owned and operated coffee shop has been quenching parched mouths in Tempe since the mid-nineties. Located in the Basha's shopping center on the northeast corner of Southern and McClintock, they offer a wide selection of beverages: the obvious coffee and espresso drinks, as well as Italian sodas, teas, smoothies and hot cocoas. Pop in on a weekend night and enjoy live jazz or grab a few friends for one of their popular game nights. If it's just coffee and Wi-Fi that you require, they've got you covered on that front, as well. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.gordonbiersch.com Businesses tend to come and go in Downtown Tempe, but brewpub Gordon Biersch, which overlooks the corner of Mill Avenue and Fifth Street, has been a loyal mainstay for more than a decade. It's no surprise, given the bar's lofty view (which is particularly nice at sunset) and the establishment's longstanding dedication to handcrafted beer. Dressed in casual khakis, business folks sample such Biersch standards as Golden Export, Hefeweizen, Czech Pilsner, Märzen brew, and rotating seasonal beers (brewed in-house), with the gleaming stills visible from the dark oak bar. The menu is just as sophisticated as the lagers. Munch on appetizers like crab cakes with Cajun rémoulade and pot stickers, then move on to entrees like the sesame-seared ahi tuna, Cajun pasta and jambalaya.

http://www.gordonbiersch.com Things to do in Glendale? Watch sports, eat, and drink. If sports don't float your boat -- but German-style craft brews do -- then Gordon Biersch has what you need. Conveniently located on the outskirts of University of Phoenix Stadium's parking lot (it's hard to get too far from sports in Glendale), Gordon Biersch is ideal for those football and hockey fans who crave a light, fruity märzen while nibbling on such entrées as Chilean sea bass and crab-stuffed shrimp before screaming themselves hoarse and pounding $8 light beers. The décor and atmosphere is decidedly upscale, even if certain Sundays bring in a rowdier crowd. Thankfully, TVs line the bar for those who want to watch the game, separating them from the people who are serious about their food. Gordon Biersch made their name on their beers, and they're still the draw. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
Low-lit, laid-back, and crazy-clean, this North Phoenix neighborhood watering hole is suburban relaxation at is finest. A spacious two-room interior (made intimate with a dividing wall) boasts darts, pool, TVs, shuffleboard, and electronic games including Wii Bowling for those looking to diversify their recreational options. Snag a stool for a seriously cold and dirt-cheap brew (Budweiser drafts are a buck-fifty) served up by sociable barkeeps while listening to the not-too-loud-sounds of the Rolling Stones and The Who on the juke. And while a dry-erase board touts "Karaoke - by Brad - Priceless!" from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. nightly, amateur poker nights, and free pool on Tuesdays, there's fun to be had daily during the 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. happy hour when the lounge's locals are happy to strike up a conversation. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.lassendas.com A shockingly long list of appetizers and homemade salads, sandwiches and main courses give this sports bar its "best of the valley" reputation. Return customers belly up to the bar with a Bull Dog Margarita, the Grille's signature drink, and the big game on one of a dozen hi-def TVs, and the after-work crowd comes early for the daily happy hour specials that pair appetizers with specialty drinks. Located on the links of the Las Sendas Golf Club—one of the valley's most demanding, desert-styled 18-hole courses—this cozy bar and restaurant offers patrons spectacular vies of the Phoenix skyline and a chance to unwind after a long day on the links. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
There's no clearer illustration of how this Mesa mainstay toes the line between family-friendly establishment and dive bar than its claw machine, which is filled with stuffed animals and, ahem, adult novelties. Beyond this incongruous mix of innocence and outrageousness, Groggy's offers numerous pool tables and a relaxed environment, no matter how intense the billiards action becomes. All three flags of North America (Canada, the United States, and Mexico) hang on the wall of the bar, seemingly underscoring the unity shared by its patrons in their common pursuit of a good time. Both neighborhood folk and students from the nearby Mesa Community College visit in search of $2.50 happy hour specials on Budweiser beers, or perhaps for a few games of nine ball. Groggy's also features a vintage outdoor sign (depicting a wild-eyed frog gripping a pool cue and frosty mug), which proudly proclaims the establishment's M.O. of "good food, good fun, good spirits."

http://www.gusnypizzalounge.com Greasy slices of Brooklyn-style round pie are served 24-7 to clubgoers after last call at this posh pizzeria located across the street from Myst. Although one end of the place is devoted to serving pizza and drinks, including plenty of adult beverages, its dining room has a lounge-like atmosphere with cozy nooks, plush seating, and non-stop dance music and hip-hop jams blaring from the sound system. Long lines through the door are the norm around 2 a.m., often resulting in an intriguing social scene that develops out on the sidewalk and patio. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>
http://www.thegymgrillandbar.com You've got to give it to the owner of the Gym Grill & Bar in Queen Creek. When asked where you've been all night, the Gym sounds like a pretty reasonable answer. You'll find some lockers in The Gym, but other than that, you're mostly looking at good-time standards, like 16 beers on tap and strategically placed big-screens airing the games. The signature horseshoe-shaped bar comes with an interesting story, too. Brought over from Washington's famous Blackies House of Beef, you could be sitting in the same spot as President Harry S Truman, Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey, or President John F. Kennedy, all men who at one time or another would have required the relaxation and cold draught afforded by the staff at The Gym. Read more about this Phoenix bar or club >>

House [Criterion] (BLU)
Amoeba Review
New, restored high-definition digital transfer.
How to describe Nobuhiko Obayashi's indescribable 1977 movie HOUSE (Hausu)? As a psychedelic ghost tale? A stream-of-consciousness bedtime story? An episode of Scooby-Doo as directed by Mario Bava? Any of the above will do for this hallucinatory head trip about a schoolgirl who travels with six classmates to her ailing aunt's creaky country home and comes face-to-face with evil spirits, a demonic house cat, a bloodthirsty piano, and other ghoulish visions, all realized by Obayashi via a series of mattes, animation, and collage effects. Equal parts absurd and nightmarish, HOUSE might have been beamed to Earth from some other planet. Never before available on home video in the United States, it's one of the most exciting cult discoveries in years.Read More

About the video
We've shown creator Muti Randolph's Deep Screen at several of our events. Now's your chance to see what it's like to step inside the interactive light installation's New York City iteration. About the piece, Randolph said:
"My work is always trying to get people inside my head, inside the things I create. When you are in front of a 2D monitor, that usual experience of watching TV or going to the movies, you end up imagining you are inside the movie… But with this stuff here, you are literally inside the action."

The Big Read [2] is a community reading project that brings neighbors, friends, family and students in the Miami Valley together to read and discuss the same book. After taking a year off, the Big Read is back, and you can help choose the book your community reads!
The first step is choosing the Big Read book. A selection committee has narrowed the options to three finalists, and now the community is invited to vote [3] October 1-31. The finalists are The Round House [4] by Louise Erdrich, The Night Circus [5] by Erin Morgenstern, and Wild: from Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail [6] by Cheryl Strayed.
The Round House [4] by Louise Erdrich (HarperCollins, October, 2012)
In this contemporary coming of age novel, thirteen-year-old Joe Coutts of the Ojibwe tribe in North Dakota is thrust prematurely into the adult world when his mother is attacked and left unable to communicate. This heart-stirring story of injustice is superbly written with firsthand knowledge of Native American culture and issues.
The Night Circus [5] by Erin Morgenstern (Random House, September, 2011)
This bestselling fantasy revolves around two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who are groomed since childhood to compete against each other until death in a fantastical circus. No one could have predicted that the opponents would fall in love and compromise this competition that has been going on for generations.
Wild: from Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail [6] by Cheryl Strayed (Knopf, 2012)
Twenty-two year old Cheryl Strayed, an inexperienced hiker, decides to hike the eleven hundred mile Pacific Crest Trail, and the drama in her life that led to her decision is artfully woven into her memoir. Hiker or not, readers will relate to her quest, the people she meets and her love of the beautiful trail.
Paper ballots will be available at Wright Memorial Public Library. Online voting will be available at the Big Read website, www.bigread.org [2] and at the Dayton Daily News website, www.daytondailynews.com [7]. Ballots will be counted in early November and the winner announced shortly thereafter.
Book discussions and other events centered on the chosen book will take place in the spring, 2014. Discussion group schedules and other information will be posted on the Big Read website [3] as they become available.

Chiffon Halter Soft Gown with Side Drape Style 9WG3260 26 26
Prettier then it looks I looked at several dresses online and came across this one... I knew it was the one for me! I wanted a halter because I didn't want to fight a strapless dress all night pulling it up! This dress is very becoming and gives beautiful shape to "bigger sized women" it is very plain but the little detail on the side of the dress is beautiful as well! I am a size 16 but in DB wedding dresses 18, here is a pic of me in my dress! I Chose ivory for my color. April 16, 2014
This was the dress! This dress was the first one I tried on and I fell in love with it. I didn't want to try on anymore but my entourage begged for more....I tried on 4 more dresses but it only confirmed that this was the one. I am a size 20 and the sample fit so well and zipped right up. It makes my body look very beautiful and very curvy...it is so light and comfortable and still very beautiful. On the rack it looked very plain but once I got it on it was perfect. Everyone said I was glowing with it on. It is very flattering and makes me so excited to get married! This looks good on any bride of any size TRY IT ON! March 24, 2014
Unexpected Choice I tried this dress on after having tried on 9 of what I thought I would wear on my wedding day. Boy was I wrong, I never thought a halter would fit the way this one did. It gives me a silhouette, and shows my curves. I am happy with my choice. It's the simple elegance I wanted for my 2nd time around! January 3, 2014
The One This was the first dress I picked out when I went into the store and the first dress I put on. I saved it as a maybe and tried on other dresses but when I went back to it, it hit me that this was the dress. It is very slimming and flattering. It is also light enough that I won't be hot all day in it. December 8, 2013

Boxing has had a litany of endemic ills that has been tearing the sport asunder for decades. Greed pig promoters who care only about $$$ & not the development of the sport. Outrageous, unworthy, overpriced, PPV's. Bad match ups, big fights never coming to fruition, basically a media black out & an assortment of other mistakes & neglects that have inevitably crippled boxing in the sporting public's view.
Then there's the UFC/MMA factor. This is a sport that has not only overtaken boxing but left it in the dust both with the media & young sports fans. Boxing, like horse racing is now an "Old Guy" sport populated by geezers living in the past & I'm including myself in this group. MMA is fresh, hip & attracts the young music & movie stars that help create the sports buzz. Boxing?
'Nuff said...
But all that is by no means boxing's biggest problem. What it boils down to is an incredible LACK of talent. Think about it: Not one boxing super star has been developed since 2000. Floyd & Pac? They won their first world titles in '97 & '98 respectively. Shane, Roy, Marquez, Hop etc. are all 90's & in Roy's & Hop's cases 80's fighters! Hell, we had a PPV last week featuring a fighter, Hopkins, from the freakin' 80's!
What the hell is up with that?
Not one fighter has been developed in the last almost 12 years that can fill an arena in the United States. That's pathetic. No sport can survive without regular infusions of young, vital, talent. Even Mexico has dried up. Going back almost 60 years to N.B.A. bantam champ, Raul "Raton" Macias Mexico has supplied a steady unending stream of fly's, banties & feathers who have developed into not only contenders but many champions & HOFers.
In my estimation Mexico has put out the BEST fighters of the last 60 years but not anymore... The last Mexican fighters to emerge & develop into champions was the Marquez brothers & again, 90's fighters. This isn't just happening in Mexico, it's happening all over the world. I talk to our correspondents in Latin America, Europe & the Far east & they all tell me the SAME thing: Young fighters want to go into MMA & have no interest in boxing because they see it as a dead sport & todays youth seem to suffer from attention deficit.
To today's youth a great fight like say Leonard-Hearns I would be a complete snore. Why? Simply because it takes too long. UFC fights are over quickly. Sitting around for 13 rounds is just too fucking boring when all you know is short attention span theatre.
10 years ago in an editorial I wrote: "Boxing is dead in America,, you just don't realize it yet..."
I can feel the rumbles. what about Pac & Floyd? When they fight it will revitalize the sport!
A this point they are both past their primes & should be on the 3rd match of a trilogy. Instead we got squa-doosh... & if & when they fight, it's one night. Then what? There is NOBODY to fill the gaping void...

GAFFNEY, S.C. - Harrill's Grocery, located just across East Frederick Street from the Harrill family home, was a big part of life in this small town.
Libby Mitchell
Libby Harrill Mitchell's parents, Lula Mae and Charlie, pose in front of Harrill's Grocery, the family store, in this undated photo provided by Libby's sister, Joyce Childers of Gaffney.
Family photo
This is the first in a series of profiles of Maine's gubernatorial candidates. The series continues with Paul LePage on Sept. 19; Eliot Cutler on Sept. 26; Shawn Moody on Oct. 3; and Kevin Scott on Oct. 10.
BORN June 22, 1940
GRADUATED from Gaffney High School, 1958; Furman University, 1962
MOVED to Maine in 1971
FIRST ELECTED to the Maine House, 1974; Speaker of House, 1997-1998
FIRST ELECTED to Maine Senate, 2004; Senate president: 2009-present
ANNOUNCED RUN for governor August 2009
CHECK OUT OUR Governor's Race special section
It's also where, in the 1950s, a woman who would become one of Maine's most powerful politicians learned about hard work, interacting with the public and helping those who were struggling to make ends meet.
These skills shaped Elizabeth "Libby" Harrill from an early age, and helped her become who she is today: Senate President Libby Mitchell, the Democratic candidate for Maine governor.
Libby -- nobody ever called her Elizabeth -- stocked shelves and waited on customers. She traveled with her father as he made his rounds to supply other small stores with items like gum and aspirin. She watched her parents allow certain customers to put items on a charge slip, even though they knew some would never come back to pay.
"It was truly an honor system," Mitchell said. "Nobody did without. If you were on hard times, my father always made sure you did not do without. You do not go hungry. I will not let you go hungry."
Growing up in Gaffney, Libby Harill did all the usual things. She sorted peaches at the Sunny Slope peach shed in the summer. She cheered Gaffney High football on Friday night, went to the movies on Saturday and to church on Sunday.
Libby did some unusual things as well. She was student body president, Miss Homecoming, and was named "most popular" in the high school yearbook. Friends say she was a natural leader, even at a young age.
"Libby really had a very, very strong calmness about her," said Mike Daniel, a former high school sweetheart and fellow 1958 Gaffney High School graduate. "She had really strong convictions."
Libby Mitchell, born in 1940 to Charlie and Lula Mae, hasn't lived in Gaffney since she graduated from high school in 1958. She hasn't lived in South Carolina since working as a college admissions counselor at her alma mater, Furman University, in the mid-1960s.
In speeches in Maine, she has often said she "didn't have the good fortune of being born in Maine but I came here just as quickly as I could."
Yet her formative years in the 1950s -- with sock hops, soda fountains, segregation and Sunday morning services at the First Baptist Church -- framed the woman who hopes to be the first female governor in Maine's history.
Her sister, Joyce Childers of Gaffney, has stayed close to the sibling she calls "Lib," despite the distance between them, and the fact her little sister stole the show at Joyce's seventh birthday party.
Over a glass of sweet tea at her Gaffney home, Childers recalled the day -- June 22, 1940 -- her younger sister Elizabeth Anne was born.
"They kept saying you're going to get a baby for your birthday," she said. "They didn't really think they would, so they bought me a doll."
The doll was Princess Elizabeth.
"I was really upset because my mother had to leave my birthday party (to deliver the baby)," she said.
When her parents returned home, they asked what she wanted to name her little sister.
"I picked Elizabeth from that doll," she said. "She was my birthday present."
Her younger sister was born seven years to the day after she was, and the women to this day continue to celebrate their mutual birthday together whenever possible, as they did in Maine this past June.
A photo of the sisters taken that day now adorns Childers' refrigerator in Gaffney.
With a seven-year age difference, though, the sisters didn't become close friends until later in life. Childers remembers her baby sister tearing up her paper dolls and telling on Joyce when she misbehaved.

Downtown Gaffney, S.C., where Libby Mitchell grew up, is now a series of payday loan shops, vacant stores and a few businesses, but it was bustling in the 1950s. "It was a time of innocence," says childhood friend Vicki Roark of Gaffney.

Caron's Parfum Sacre is amazing! I love the mix of clove, pepper and rose. It seems to change a bit as the day goes on. You can tell this is a master mix done by a wonderful French perfumer.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Canisters of bull semen caused quite a scare on the on-ramp to Interstate 65 South Tuesday morning.....The canisters fell off a Greyhound bus just after 5 a.m. as the bus traveled around the curve of the ramp just south of downtown Nashville....Fire and emergency crews were called to the scene amid reports of a foul odor.....When they discovered four unmarked canisters with steam and an unpleasant odor coming from them, they shut down the on-ramp and called HAZMAT crews.
Officials traced the containers to Greyhound after finding bus tickets on the ground. The bus did not know it lost its load and had continued on.....Authorities called Greyhound, who, after speaking with the driver the bus, determined the canisters to be filled with straws of frozen sperm packed in liquid nitrogen.
The load originated in Columbus, Ohio and was en route to a breeding facility in Laredo, Texas.

Annie also has a new mix available for download through the www.anniemacpresents.com site. Its called Annie Mac's Man Mix, and here is how Annie explains it coming together.
'This mix was done one hundred per cent live in my little studio. There were lots of ups (raving around in my dressing gown) and downs (throwing CDs at walls and potty mouth expulsions of frustration) but I'm generally happy with it. The title came from a conversation with Toddla T after I DJ'd at the Warehouse Project in Manchester where he asked me why I 'man' it. You can hear the conversation at the top of the mix. It's also a little audio rant on how there's 'too many men' and not enough girls in the dubstep raves. Thanks to MC Spitfire for gracing the cover with his tattoo. I sincerely hope you enjoy it.'
Annie's Biography
Born and bred in Dublin to a family immersed in musicality, Annie left home at 17 to attend Queens University in Belfast, where she was bitten by the clubbing bug after visiting the city's legendary Shine club nights. Inspired to purchase her first set of decks, Annie taught herself to mix using old funk and soul records bought from local charity shops. Following a stint as part of Shine's marketing team and four months living in Manhattan, Annie made the move to London, working simultaneously as a TV & Radio plugger, a freelance Broadcasting Assistant and a presenter for the SBN, before she approached Radio 1. Initially employed as a BA, her natural flair got her noticed by management and she was soon standing in for Mary Anne Hobbs.
Annie's show on Radio 1 began in July 2004, when, working as a assistant producer on Zane Lowe's show, she impressed Radio 1 bosses with her demos and her determination.
Since then her show has gone from strength to strength. Annie Mac's Mash Up on Friday nights on Radio 1 has attracted a host of loyal followers from around the world and sees Annie play the cutting edge dance music which she has become known for. Annie has established herself firmly as part of Radio 1′s specialist output.
Annie is also a talented club DJ and is booked regularly to play the UKs most credible clubs. Annie has just completed her annual DJ tour 'Annie Mac Presents…' which she has hosted for 3 years running. Annie personally chooses the line-up of DJs for her tour, both established and up-and-coming to play in her favourite clubs across the UK. 2007 has seen Annie DJ at more festivals than ever, plus regular dates in Ibiza and around the world.

Looking for something you can get off with and yet use all the time? The Ribbed Wedge Plug with Glans Ring is a great addition to your penis plug collection or a nice piece if your just starting out. It is 1 3/4" of insertable pleasure with 3 ribs (humps) for that constant sensation inside you. It starts out at 6mm and goes up to 8mm at its largest point. The glans ring is a great addition to the plug because it will help keep it in for you while you are at play or work and no one will ever know you are wearing a penis plug. It offers a cum through hole so you can wear all the time and it will all flow right on through.

- did not fit tight enough Review by littlebig
it would have been ok if it had fit tighter so that it didn't leak around it.

- great feeling new to this Review by Jimmy D
i am new to this idea of putting a penis plug into my penis. but i have seen video clips of guys inserting them . it was a hot turn on waching and i decided to give it a try, so i ordered the ribbed wedge plug with glans ring. when i got it, i boiled it in water and then use alcohol. i made sure it was sterilized. i put lube on me and the penis plug and slowly inserted the plug letting it slide in gently. the feeling was great but i was a also scared inserting the plug. i relaxed and starting playing, the orgasm was fantastic. the product is very well made and i would reconmend to anyone interested in trying this penis plug. also the size is very good for a beginer to try

- Nice Review by andrew
Overall it is very comfortable to wear for long periods. And very smooth for insertion. Only down side is the incertable length could be longer without hampering the time of wear. And with the longer insert able length it could be tapered to a wider circumference when fully incerted

- VERY NICE!!!! Review by rugelus2
Quality is exellent. Never have used any plugs before but had no problems with this one going in. Wish there was a choice of glans ring sizes instead of only 1 1/4 and also bigger dia than 8mm. Other than that I am very pleased and will be buying more.

- Very Pleased Review by NaughtyPleasure
I am a noob to this so figured id give this one a try, just got in mail. Cleaned it and lubed it up and put it in. The size is just right as far as diameter goes, nice tight fit. very little resistance but enough to keep it in, just a little pop past all the ribs. Very clean and polished piece, quality is very nice. Also the arm will unscrew from the shaft and the ball at the end will unscrew for removal if you want to use it with out the arm or gland ring. Thru hole works great no blow by for me.
